Arkillian's Art Thread

[Arkillian]

OK- If you guys what to see it, I'll spoiler tag my non King's quest art so that it's not taking away too much from the thread. Um, perhaps I should show some OCs of mine?

Zeth Gant is my current most popular one. He's a fan character I made for a Phoenix Wright story I'm writing, and he's become so well known that a few people have asked me what game he turns up in (Lol )

He's a gambling fanatic who loves to play the odds. He was born into a mafia family which he wants to leave and has a gift with evidence forging. He holds alt of vices that go against my grain like gambling and smoking, and he has little concern for people that don't matter to him. He's... a bit like Dr House in that way I guess, but Zeth does care about some people. Those people he'd go to the ends of the earth for.

Zeth leads a low budget life style, and doesn't spend money on anything he doesn't need to- not cause he's a cheapskate- he actually has alot of money due to being great at gambling. The high roller life style is what he's trying to leave behind, and he wants all his money to buy information off people. He networks the black market for information. Paranoid is a good word for him. Paranoid with a sense of justice. His character is a vigilante type

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

A poster I did of him- learnt vectors when I did this. From scratch. Illustrator holds no secrets for me now after 50 friggen hours of this picture >.<

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

A picture of Zeth playing a game of poker at an underground basement- likely with some dodgy folk. He prefers his money this way cause it's less traceable, and higher rolling. They gamble information here too.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Zeth ends up falling for a girl (Sarah Cottontail) with a mysterious back story. One I haven't fully written yet. I can say that in this, he's not dead- she shot him in the heart with a synthetic blood filled pellet. IT's her thing It's also the cover of this art book I made last year

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Called 'I want your revenge after Lady Gaga's song 'Bad Romance'. The girl in this was meant to originally been the love interest, but it's a friend's OC and she didn't want me remoulding her for my story so I canned her for the girl in the previous picture. Aimee was cool cause she was meant to be a childhood friend and now a ballistics expert in the police force T.T Great back story lost.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Concept outfits for Zeth gant, Miles Edgeworth, and Godot for a casino scene I plan to have in my story. In this, Zeth is a dealer- thus his cheesy dealer vest

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

I've got tones of art of him at my DA account, but most is either unfinished, or not a hugely awesome standard/sketches... or not PG13 ( ) "Girly Meme featuring Zeth"  is a funny pic, but it's a meme so it's not a work of art. Just fun. Small note, the German looking guy (Alexander Kraus) is gay, and it's a girly meme, so Zeth IS crossdressing for the whole thing. It's randomness. It's also PG13, so don't worry too much about it being too naughty

Um... I can post more on Zeth, but there's alot of unfinished art / sketches / non PG13 art that I don't know if I should post.

Dude, that was awesome! 

[Haids1987]

Whoa!  I'm amazed and totally in awe!

[Arkillian]

Thanks guys

Oh- One thing I forgot, I TOTALLY created him when I was on codeine and tripping out It's so funny. He started off as a guy that wanted to frame Phoenix Wright for murder, then suddenly like a snowball rolling down the mountain to become an avalanche, he turned into this huge character O.O His character is nicknamed 'The Skunk' too When I posted the first concept drawing of him, a friend of mine called him 'skunk guy' and I just rolled with it ^^ His final concept ended up having him ditching the jacket, having a 90% primary colour scheme, and arm bands like poker players do. This is about the only ful body pic of him that isn't cut off somehow O.o

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Um... some others of Zeth are:-

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

I was going to use these in my art book, but had to ditch the pages due to time constraints. I really like their expressions in this. They actually tell you alot about the character's personalities

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

A tester comic page for my latest comic to try out some new methods of finishing. Pencil is much more fun for me, but I think I'll stick with inks. It's just nicer scanned. The scene is something like-

The 3 of them are at a Jazz Bar called the 'Alto Lounge' listening to this girl sing, but she sounds a little lifeless.

Vaughan (first guy)- "Well, she's hot, but she sounds like a robot."

Zeth (Skunk haired guy)- "You would too if you were listening in on a conversation."

Darren (Guy on right)- "Why are we talking about it here then?"

The next panel is the singer looking at them in interest as she sings. Zeth says something about the view being better here than in some dirty basement or something and talks about his plan.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

This is just a sketch and will forever be. NZ just hit summer at the time, and to celebrate the great weather, I drew Zeth and Diego (a character from the Phoenix Wright games) playing volleyball, but Zeth got hit by a volleyball and now has a blood nose Summer happens to also be when we get Christmas, so it's a Christmas joke too, calling him Rudolf (the red nose reindeer) ^^

Zeth- "HEY! What are you grinning at old man?"
Diego- "Nothing Rudolf." *chuckles*

[NW15]

Yes, I agree, those are awesome!

[Arkillian]

Thank you I'm... not sure how often I should update this thread with non TSL art, but heres a WIP of the Angel and dragony picture I posted earlier

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

Again, they're two OCs of mine, Alex Dragon, and Athena. They're from my Medieval fantasy story, 'Dragon Twins'. Still got a lot to colour on this. I keep spotting mistakes T.T It's amazing how badly it scanned though. The scanner dropped all my light yellows. That annoys me :/ To get the yellows up, I had to sacrifice the light blues and... Urgh. My graduations are actually smooth IRL- honest.

[Enchantermon]

You could always change the title of the thread to something like "Arkillian's King's Quest (and otherwise) art." Or just "Arkillian's art." Or "'Art'killian."

[Arkillian]

This is true. Funnily enough, Arkillians use to be Artikillians (cause they were Ice dwellers) I simplified it to Arkillian though cause even I couldn't pronounce it

[Enchantermon]

Lol!

[Arkillian]

Sorry- been tired lately and really busy O.o

It's.. non TSL art again, but I haven't had enough 'at home time' to do any of that T.T So, I post old art >.>

A Work in progress TRON picture I've titled 'The Golden Days'- features Tron and Clu from Legacy LOVE their outfits in that movie

Apparently I can't change the subject of my thread

[Enchantermon]

Huh...I guess you can't. Well, you could always PM one of the mods and get them to change it for you. I'm sure DD would love the chance to use his Global Mod Powers of Awesomeness™, lol.

[Arkillian]

Oh yes- I should try out his powers then ^^ So something like 'Killy's Art thread'?

[KatieHal]

I think keeping your full username in there would help people know who's art it is I can change it for you. "Arkillian's Art Thread" sound good?

[Arkillian]

Sounds good to me If you could please change it 

[Haids1987]

Duuuuuuuude, I have turned into such a TRON fangirl over the past few months that it's ridiculous.

Loving your pic, Arkillian! More pictures of Jeff Bridges in the world is always better.

[kindofdoon]

Mods, why can't users change thread titles? It seems only reasonable.

[KatieHal]

It does, and I'm not really sure. The options for what kind of account can do aren't arranged in a nice and obvious way.

[Arkillian]

Duuuuuuuude, I have turned into such a TRON fangirl over the past few months that it's ridiculous.

Me too! I can't wait for April when it comes out on DVD! The sad thing about TRON is there is some FANTASTIC art already out there, and they're done by alot of professional artists so I'm all 'Do they REALLY need my art out there too?' You're right though- there does need to be more art of him. Specially of Kevin / Clu. He is such a COOL character. I am so happy that they used the original actors for the remake ^^ I really hope that TRON 2 has more Tron x Flynn though. It really saddens me that there wasn't any bromance there like the original :/ I'd like to think that TRON 2 will have Tron doing his awesome thing, teaming up with Kevin, Sam, and Quorria Maybe even Clu if they can My life will be complete then

And thanks Katie!

Wait, what's this?! Has a third TRON movie been confirmed?!

[Arkillian]

Well, they REALLY left a big opening for one at the end of Legacy, and there was rumors that if Legacy did well they would. Not actually sure if it's confirmed though...
